Mindy McCready working to regain custody of son

LEE COUNTY: Country music star and Southwest Florida native Mindy McCready was in court Wednesday with several family members supporting her. She has hired a new attorney and is hoping to regain custody of her son.

The hearing was a chance for all parties to make sure they are on the same page.

McCready's attorney was concerned about paperwork filed by DCF attorneys.

Right now, McCready is only allowed supervised visits with her 4 year old son Zander, and her attorney says sometimes she is even blocked from seeing the child.

"I miss my child more than I could ever explain to anyone. It's difficult being in Tennessee and him being here. It's difficult having a family member and I who don't get along and that person is in charge of everything," said McCready.

McCready's attorneys say they expect to file new motions which will hopefully allow her to eventually regain custody of her son.

Professionally McCready says she is working on a new album and recording a new reality TV show.
